Department Of Cardiothoracic Surgery
The Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery at Anu Institute of Neuro and Cardiac hospital, we have specialized Team of Cardiothoracic Surgeons who can perform complex cardiac surgeries with a success rate matching global standards. Patients benefit from the expertise of highly skilled cardiac surgeons with vast and varied experience, who adopt a patient-centric approach right from the first out-patient consultation to post-operative care.
Cardiothoracic surgery treats conditions in the heart, lungs, and chest. Our surgeons perform a variety of cardiothoracic surgeries, from minimally invasive to heart transplants.
If a child has problems that involve the nervous system, a paediatric neurologist has the specialist training and knowledge to assess, diagnose and treat the child. The conditions dealt with by paediatric neurologists vary considerably, from relatively simple disorders such as migraine or cerebral palsy through to more complex and rare conditions such as metabolic disease or neurodegenerative disorders.
Scope Of Services
- Angioplasty :Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA, or balloon angioplasty) helps restore a healthy blood flow to the heart by reopening arteries that are narrowed by fatty plaque.
- Stent placement :A stent is a small metal coil or tube that is placed in a narrowed artery to hold it open. To place the stent, your healthcare provider first performs angioplasty or atherectomy to compress or cut away plaque build-up in the artery.
- Ablation :Ablation is a technique typically used to treat abnormal heart rates and rhythms (arrhythmias). It involves ablating (destroying) a very small, targeted area of the heart muscle.
- Pacemakers and implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) :To correct abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias) and help your heart beat more efficiently, your doctor may recommend a device implant. The most common device implants are pacemakers and implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs).
- Open heart surgery : Most often, open heart surgeries treat blockages in the coronary arteries or correct problems with the heart valves. Open heart procedures can also repair heart defects and help correct heart rhythm problems.
- Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) :Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG, often pronounced “cabbage”) is one of the most commonly performed open heart surgeries. In this procedure, a vein from your leg — or an artery from your chest wall or arm — is used to bypass a coronary artery that is narrowed or blocked by fatty plaque build-up.
- Heart valve repair or replacement :If your heart valves have been damaged or diseased, they may fail to open and close correctly. This puts extra strain on your heart muscle. In this case, your healthcare providers may recommend open heart surgery to repair or replace your heart valve(s).
- Ventricular assist devices :A ventricular assist device is an implantable heart pump that is used to treat heart failure.
- Heart transplant :A heart transplant replaces a severely diseased or malformed heart with a new heart from a human organ donor. This procedure is considered for late-stage heart failure after other attempts have failed.
- Carotid surgery :The name carotid endarterectomy is a mouthful, but it is a relatively simple surgery that removes plaque in one of your carotid arteries (the main arteries in your neck that supply blood to the brain).
